Let's get this thread going again, anyone have anything to share?

Not when you're posting prints like that :-)

Not sure if I've posted any of these before, I don't think I have but oh well if I did.  The first one is as easy as it gets and none of them are very cool.  The last FD one was tough, 7-8 colors I think, all spot colors touching each other on a 10 color press with one revolution.

Nice prints Alan!
It's not a job if you love doing it.

Especially the wood grain, and all else is looking awesome even if blurry!

Really nice prints everyone.  Danny your stuff is another level if you ask me.  Something for me to shoot for for sure.  I'm moving in your shop soon, you can't stop me.

You got that right, but he's printing that work very well in addition to that.  Great shop as far as I can tell.

LOL, you guys are too damn funny......I will be the first to admit there's no magic going on over here, just good art, good seps, good equipment, a little elbow grease and it is what it is... No secrets here!! I have to admit that the job Alan posted with all those colors butting up against each other wet on wet 1 revolution around the press is damn impressive. I know 100% in my shop that job would go around the press twice so I have to give major props to him for that. Imo it's more challenging doing a 8 color butt registration spot color job on black shirts then any sim process printing, but just my opinion there. My shop could really use some help when it comes to those type of projects as everything I know that works for sim process doesn't work for big area/lots of color solid printing so we have some room for improvement there for sure. As far as our sim process printing it has some along ways since a couple years ago but we still have much room for improvement. I appreciate all the nice comments from everyone, and if anyone needs help with anything for prints like that just send me a PM. I would be glad to help out anyone on this forum where I can and if anyone ever wants to drop in for a visit just let me know, would be happy to show our small setup we have going.

Hear hear!

Large solid swatches of color, especially when they butt up with other colors, is probably the most difficult kind of job we face.
One recommendation I can make is to use a discharge underbase whenever possible.
